Thing 5

Web 2.0 is amazing. While I was watching the video I realized just how much I use in my daily life. Facebook, youtube, skype, blogger, google, and wiki, are just a few of the websites I use each and every day. My favorite way to use web 2.0 is on my iphone. I love when I am in the car or out shopping I can find the answer to anything on the go. It is so great to be able to look up movie times when my boyfriend and I are out and randomly decide to go see a movie. I am able to "facetime" with my friends from home in Memphis via our iphones and it is a great way for us to stay connected. To me, Web 2.0 means to constantly be connected and informed with up to date information that is constantly changing on the internet. For instance last night I watched the Mrs. Universe pageant for ONE HOUR and 48 MINUTES and all of the sudden NO SIGNAL. But, don't worry. I waited 5 minutes and there she was, Miss Sao Paulo, on the Yahoo homepage. :] Without the internet I would have had to wait until the morning and go BUY a newspaper. In the future there will be no need for paper newspapers because you can access them immediately online for FREE! You can even read newspapers from different states with just a quick google search. Its amazing what we are to do now, and I can't wait to see what the future of the web will be like. Can you imagine web 3.0?!?!
